Tried it, it works but don't like the style of it (yet). It would be great if each article could have a fixed box to fit in (like widgets).

The CMS is so poor at the moment.

Well, i've changed the original design quite a bit since the previous posts, and scrapped the black DIV background because well, it just looked off. However, I'm still trying to figure out a way to correctly add padding to the article text, so that it's not so sturck to a border. If anyone has info regarding it please shoot me a line, I really want to move the text over about 5 pixels so its not so stuck to the border.

Firebug to the rescue!!

Modified the following classes in vbcmc.css and moved all the content in article previews over 5 px!

.fullwidth
Modified to 98% to compensate for the shifting of the text 5 pixels
added padding-left: 5px;

h3.arctile_preview
added padding-left: 5px;

cms_article_username (careful there's a few entries for this class)
added padding-left: 5px;

cms_article_section_location
added padding-left: 5px;

and now, voila, White Article background, with a black border, not touching the blocks, and 5 pixel padding on the left side.
Cute!

SS Attached!

i am also needing help adding padding. i change the padding in the coding but the article content doesn't move over.

Allstar - Did you read the previous post. I was able to move all the padding on the article.

You need to Add padding to each one of those lines to move the full article, plus the Post Header, plus the Posted By: Text over.

Also, if you're not very familiar with CSS, Punctuation, and spacing is important.

The correct code is:
padding-left: 5px;

and NOT
[S]added[/S] padding-left: 5px;


This includes the ; after the end of the style.

Hope it helps :)
